Now you have plans for the weekend

You need plans. Fat City has a recycle bin full of listings. In this post, all our problems are solved.

It’s Super Bowl weekend. But before you get to the big game on Sunday, this is a huge weekend for charity events in Kansas City.

The Horizon Academy puts on its annual fundraiser — The Bayou Bash (seems appropriate with New Orleans in the Super Bowl) —- on the stage at Starlight Theater on Saturday. The Mardi Gras-themed event includes dinner, dancing and drinks for $100.

Also on Saturday, the Medical Missions Foundation hosts its Art for the Children Gala and Auction at the Westin Crown Center. A ticket is $150 and the event begins with a cocktail hour at 6:30 p.m.

And there’s an adults-only fundraiser at the Kansas City Zoo on Saturday night from 7 to 9:30. “Kiss and Tail” is a presentation on the strange and interesting mating habits of animals at the zoo. The event — which includes two drinks — is $35 per person for Friends of the Zoo and $45 for non-members (add $5 if you buy your tickets at the door).
